TO DAY’S TO P TI PS
Although unable to justify favouritism on his Leicester debut, EIGHTH IMMORTAL shaped with real encouragement in second. The third has won since to give the form a boost and with the drop to 6f promising to suit, he is fancied to go one place better Maximus Meridius also struck the woodwork on his first start and ought to be dangerous if the quicker ground isn’t an issue, and don’t rule out Sydney Carton because he was out of his depth in the Chesham.
TOTEWIN: EIGHTH IMMORTALTOTEEACHWAY: MAXIMUS MERIDIUS
The form figure suggests CROWNRIGHT took a backward step last time, but that couldn’t be further from the truth because it was a really solid effort to finish ninth in the Sandringham. She’s seemingly bumped into a few throughout her fledgling career so far but this, on paper at least, looks a fine opportunity. Yarmouth runnerup Summerson is probably the main threat, but it wasn’t a bad novice event that Brighton Beach contested on her debut so she’s no forlorn hope.
TOTEWIN: CROWNRIGHT
TOTEEACHWAY: SUMMERSON
All of these know how to win and are likely to have more to offer now pitched into a nursery, but perhaps previous Chester experience can allow DONEGAL ROSE to come out on top. Hugo Palmer’s filly left it late to score over the extended 5f here in May so is sure to appreciate a step up in trip, while being drawn in stall one is no bad thing either King’s Prize was out of her depth in the Albany but should be more than capable at this level, as should Doncaster scorer Cash Cove.
TOTEWIN: DONEGAL ROSE
TOTEEACHWAY: KING’S PRIZE
INFRAAD is back from a break having easily landed a novice race at Pontefract back in April. He barely broke sweat on that occasion so the Great Voltigeur entrant could prove ahead of the assessor now handicapping. Gonna Fly is another novice winner to keep a close eye on, while Hugo Palmer has won three of the last four renewals and his C&D winner Patagonia Girl is preferred to stable companion Nolton Cross.
TOTEWIN: INFRAAD
TOTEEACHWAY: GONNA FLY
RAN AMOK could prove the one to side with in an open sprint. The four-year-old arrives on the back of two creditable efforts in defeat and a repeat of his latest third at Doncaster may prove sufficient. Although Aces Wild is bidding for a hat-trick up in class, he could still have a say in proceedings and makes more appeal than last year’s winner Rosenpur, who has had no luck with the draw.
TOTEWIN: RAN AMOK
TOTEEACHWAY: ACES WILD
Southwell runner-up Alfa Whiteburd has to be of interest racing off a 6lb lower mark back on tur f. Placed in all three starts in maiden company, Imelda could be in the mix on her handicap debut, but a chance is taken on BERKSHIRE BOOM. Andrew Balding’s charge finished third on unsuitably soft ground at this venue last time and that points to a big effort here with conditions more in his favour
TOTEWIN: BERKSHIRE BOOM
TOTEEACHWAY: ALFA WHITEBURD
EL PINTO started the year racing off a much higher mark. Third at Carlisle last time, the handicapper has taken a chance dropping him a further 2lb and Chris Kellett’s charge may edge affairs. A case can be made for Kings Merchant back over this longer trip after going close over 6f at Doncaster, while Pearly Squirrel could prove competitive with Ashley Lewis’ 5lb allowance in her favour.
TOTEWIN: EL PINTO
TOTEEACHWAY: KINGS MERCHANT

A few of these bring potential, not least Jack Jones’ EIGHTH IMMORTAL who can build on a promising debut Leicester second and get off the mark. Sydney Carton could emerge as the main danger now his sights are lowered, although Andrew Balding’s debutant Regency Royal and Ayr debut runner-up Maximus Meridius also enter calculations.

MAIDEN FILLIES’ STAKES (CL ASS 3) (GBB/GBBPLUS RACE)
for maiden three yrs old and upwards fillies and mares
This one mile two furlongs contest for fillies and mares aged three-years-old and upwards is a maiden stakes - a race for horses that have yet to record a racecourse victory. There are a variety of reasons why the older horses in this race could still be maidens. Stoutly bred horses are unlikely to be seen at their best over the shorter distances of their juvenile season whilst a setback or injury can curtail even the most precociously bred horse’s two-year-old career

RACE DESCRIPTION
A nursery is a handicap that is restricted to two-year-olds only In order to be allowed to take part, entrants must have already run in three maiden or novice races, or have won two races, which then qualifies them for an official handicap rating based on what they have achieved so far. Quite simply the higher their rating, the bigger the weight they have to carry This particular seven furlongs race is for horses which have been rated from 0 to 85

This is a one mile and two furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 76 to 95 In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than a lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130.

Our stewards have a supply of white wristbands that can be used to write your telephone number on and place around you children’s wrist in case they get lost, that way we can re-unite you much quicker If you lose your child on a raceday, please alert a steward who will be able to get a radio call out to other stewards within the vicinity Equally, if you have found a lost child on-course, please alert a steward as quickly as possible.
This is a five furlongs handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 66 to 85 To qualify for a handicap rating horses must have run at least three times in a Flat race in Britain, or have run in no more than two Flat races run in Britain and won at least one of them. This rating then dictates the weight to be carried in a handicap In simple terms a horse rated 85 in this particular race would be required to carry 5lb more than a rival rated 80

This is a seven furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 51 to 70 Once a horse has qualified for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed. A below-par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 6lb

IMELDA may find her wide draw a potential stumbling block but she’s got a good rider aboard and her unexposed nature and the form strength of her recent third makes her too compelling a case to ignore in this contest. Alfa Whiteburd is better berthed and could prove competitive from lower turf mark, while Black Rock Beauty is progressive so merits respect.

To avoid horses being denied a run which is obviously disappointing for connections, the British Horseracing Authority has allowed the previous race to be split into two divisions, with each contest carrying identical race conditions.

HORSE WELFARE
At all of our race meetings, there are three equine vets on duty They are equipped and positioned to give immediate care to a horse should it require it. This may involve screens being erected around a horse to give the veterinary team privacy to administer treatment and does not necessarily mean the worst. The same applies with doctors and jockeys.
